after he is girlfriend painting pink cat
dissipated as absurd as it seems
question asked me recently was
a few months ago in the workshop that
we share with other artisans of that
May day I was very happy because
just finished cat and I loved
how you had to give but suddenly
it appears as if it were a black storm
a woman with a face like a
plates won a little expression
rancid and a slightly unfriendly tone and
Release me to you that cat sells them to you
who buys you that you will not have
girlfriend painting pink cats
of course this more than a question
it was really a statement one
affirmation with a little bit of bad milk
because all this said it to full lung
so he would find out and thor carve and
bi were in truth the truth that I
there are times that I myself wonder how
he ends up painting cat because as he has just
say abi
I studied environmental sciences and in the
university of cádiz and how I liked
the plants then I specialized in
botany and asia that doing a
PhD on pre – salt diversity
mediterranean a type of scrub as well
I am a scientist but that does not mean
that today I also dedicated myself
professionally to the design and between
many other things also painted data
pink
this comes to me from always since
small I had liked to paint not me
like to decorate figure but that always
I did as a hobby as something secondary
in my life until 2014 in 2014 I knew
kiko executioner and with him began a
project that would change my life said the
publicist and like me too
since childhood he has had the need to
express yourself artistically
then we met
we realized that our style
artistic was the same
then we started creating we took a
plate of a madonna in a bit bland
I was bored
then let us excited
painting it in fuchsia pink not
putting on a leopard suit and and
finishing the with rhinestones by
halo let’s not say that the two powers
we go then in the middle is good not
our environment encouraged us
we shared our creations
artistic essays on networks
social and had very good reception
so also this along with the
illusion of doing something that really
love and freedom that gives you that
be your project to do what you
Of the will
in less than a year we convert what
it was our hobby is our main
dedication then artistically we
we baptized as literal strawberry syrup
in is not strawberry syrup not syrup
Strawberry
under this signature we created a lot of design
type of product and also many piece
artistic
all of them claiming our root
faith
putting value in value diversity and
of course all of them with our
style so particular style so
particular the kitsch and that is the one
did this what he asks us all
the interviews that make us the word
originated in the 19th century and for its
pint you can deduce from what language
come kipps you have there germana
comes from German
specifically from the word kitchin that
means something like making a
botched and that is moving a little
the concept of kitsch
the experts do not get to put
agreement to define the good in gives a
concise definition, definition
clear but I dare to write oslo
I would say it is an artistic style
that has its origin in the production in
Mass of art or design inspired by the
popular culture
aesthetically it’s something very ornate very
exaggerated and that also has it in its
sentimental plane where it tends to
melodrama
a curious fact about kitsch is that it can
be intentional like pop art by andy
warhol or it can be naive as it happens or
does not mean naive that does not have
intention to be kitsch
but it is fully as it happens with
the animated gif that my mother sends
guaza to tell me what he wants and
give me good night
He also assured that many of you
you have several mega of the memory of
our phone with these little ones
works of art
another one of the keys of the kitsch that
based on popular culture uses
universal element that we all know
beforehand let’s say we have it
already predigested precisely because of this the
15 is to say this conveys us the
first sight what you want
let’s acknowledge no and that’s going to do this
for all audiences
that’s precisely why this fact is
is what most open debate on the
kitsch art in the world where
find where there are two streams
main and opposite
one side is the one series
experts who consider the Quiche
poor quality art label it as
bad taste like something tacky
there are even some of them who do not
they consider art because for these
people consider that for there to exist
art there must be an intellectual dialogue
between the work and the observer as the
kiss is so direct they consider that
there is no dialogue and they exclude it from
art
however there is another the other current
defend that the quiz leave you and also
it is supported because it has a public
huge one of the most iconic
important of this artistic style in
united states are the flamingos of
plastic garden
Since its creation in 1957,
sold more than 40 million
so we would fall to almost a flamenco
for Spanish if we share them
because with that data we can do
an idea of the magnitude of the kino of the
number of people who like that
he appreciates his sense of humor his irony
and also little by little the kiss has gone to
doing has been valuing more has gone
gaining space in gallery and museum
of recognized international prestige
in fact some of the most artists
currently quoted are from this
style are kiss like for example this
work of jeff koons or is also
Yayoi Kusama one of the most prominent and
but if we focus if we focus
in the case of Spain
there we will see a case out of series by
the abundance of kiss that there is and so
ingrained that we have that and cones of
Spanish kiss occurs there is already what
is saying one of the icons
The main ones are the flamencas marín las
flamencas that were placed on top of the
TV that was made in Chiclana and that
since it closed the factory that
It made in 2014 and have become
a collector’s jewel
sure some of you have also
thought about legionary dolls
This was done in Murcia and they were the
perfect gift for people who were leaving
to do the military so that you have a
detail with your loved ones and the
cis is not only here is also
for example in the bottle of uncle pepe
in the osborne bull are what in
Portos Spanish side taking advantage
any place any corner
to do it kitsch like putting a
virgin of dew in a can of meat
of quince and also not only 15 not
it only stays in toys decoration or
food packaging we have artists
keys with a capital letter for example stand out
of painters the time of the move
madrileña
the costs or currently cristóbal
tabares because as I said is a is a
style that is still booming
for nothing is old-fashioned and if
we are talking about art kits and
Spain
I have to mention the folkloric
the folkloric you simply have
who imagines a performance by lola
jury dew flowers
marifé de triana or estrellita castro
they did not sing songs
they were already interpreted and in many cases
they made perfect kitsch works
so with this I think it has been
Clear that kitsch is for everyone
sites and has a giant audience and
as they saw a few
the quiz has that bad taste tag
vulgar that one let’s say a passion
towards what is considered tacky and
precisely that negative view that
has towards kitsch is what makes it
a very attractive phenomenon is to him what
Forgive the artistic expression
perfect perfect to break with the
norm to claim the beauty of what
that goes out of the norm because that norm
we do it among all
it’s so absurd that we turn a cat
something as simple as a cat
painted pink in an act
vindictive
then what I what I invite
is to reflect and I thought that
in theory we love to say that for
likes the colors
but then in practice we impose
canons of uniform beauty and
narrow
so what do you see where they
Good if not tell my friend
of the cat and what we should address
towards a conception of beauty more
free more open
let’s say be more more more open with
we ourselves in the most faithful and
let’s not go because that’s how we would be
happier and and we would not have that
prison that we set ourselves
they are not imposing that regulation
as a society
so I invite you to look for
your own conception of beauty
that we impose one to you
same analysis what you do not like
have and a shame that they like
weird things because I assure you that although
is already beginning to cherish our criteria
of beauty and you do not see there is beauty in
uncommon things do not go up just
I say it because of my bad experience and
because also a truth that we have
discovered with our walking
professional doing and selling these
extravagant work things was a
absolute truth that actually as
always but it ‘s something very important and it’s
that fortunately there are people pa tó
Thank you
